[Prolonged epistaxis symptom of nasopharynx carcinoma in a child].

This case report presents a ten-year-old boy with recurrent nosebleeds (epistaxis) over an extended period. In addition, he showed signs of slowed weight gain and developed symptoms such as snoring and sweating during sleep. Rhinoscopy revealed a mass in the nasopharynx, and further tests confirmed the presence of an Epstein-Barr Virus-positive nasopharyngeal carcinoma. After several rounds of chemo-, proton-, and immunomodulating therapy, the boy has recovered and is now in good health. This case highlights the importance of a thorough examination when epistaxis is accompanied by other risk factors.
